Work in progress…

Here are some mock-ups I recently created for a music video treatment, (sans Joe’s wonderful animated characters). Joe and I are in the process of further developing the treatment, and we might end up moving away from using some of these inital ideas, but I really like them so I thought I would share them here.

Music Video (re-edit!) – The Tiger Inside Will Eat The Child

Earlier this year I posted the US online video release for Kate Miller-Heidke’s “The Tiger Inside Will Eat The Child” (that version was from her Fatty Gets A Stylist side project with Keir Nutall). Well, now Kate’s new album Nightflight is about to be released and so the video has received a re-edit for the album’s acoustic version of the track, I think it’s a lovely fit!

Animated & directed by Lucy Dyson & Joseph Jensen.

Music Video: Gemma Ray – Rescue Me

 

Joseph Jensen and I directed and animated this music-video for the wonderful Gemma Ray. Rescue Me premiered in the US on NPR, in the UK on DIY, on Rolling Stone in Germany, Tone Deaf in Australia, and it’s also been featured on MTV Iggy and Bust Magazine. Gemma’s new album Island Fire (that I also made the album art for) is out on Bronzerat Records on May 29. It’s an amazing record!

 

    
                  
    

New music video: Kate Miller-Heidke – The Tiger Inside Will Eat The Child

Joseph Jensen and I directed, illustrated and animated this music-video for Kate Miller-Heidke /Sony Music last year. The video was released a couple of months ago and has seemingly slipped under the radar. It premiered on NY/Chicago-based online music publication Consequence of Sound and received a nice write up/interpretation there:

From CoS: For the clearest sign of Miller-Heidke’s unique creative worldview, we offer up the video for “The Tiger Inside Will Eat The Child”. Consider it a mix of Hanna, The Neverending Story and Where the Wild Things Are, a mish-mash of pop culture tidbits that sees the young girl hunt and kill animals with a bow before riding off into the sunset on her magical winged-tiger/spirit guide. It’s a plot from a bad acid trip for sure, but it succinctly demonstrates Miller-Heidke’s blend of the quaint and the bizzare.
